Introduction
Types of Concrete
Plain Cement Concrete (PCC)
Solid mass made of cement, sand, gravel, cement and water
Durability, ease in casting, easy availability and economical
Good in compression over brick and stone masonry
Density ranges from 1200 to 2500 kg/m3
Compressive strength: 10 to 100 N/mm2
Very weak in tension, so limited use as structural material
Used in hollow/solid blocks, small pedestals, mass concrete
applications like dams, etc.
5
Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC)
Concrete with steel bars embedded in it
Composite material with resistance to tensile stresses
Steel bars provided are in tension zone of flexural members
Bond b/t steel & concrete ensures strain compatibility
Steel imparts ductility to the brittle concrete
Tensile stresses arise as direct tension, flexural tension, shear
force, temperature and shrinkage effects
Steel will also resist compressive stresses along with
concrete
6
Pre-stressed Concrete
High-strength concrete with high tensile steel wires
embedded and tensioned, prior to loading
Concrete pre-compressed to a degree that, after loading
there is no resultant tension developed in the beam
Used in bridges, tanks, railway sleepers, etc.
Fibre-Reinforced Concrete: Steel/glass fibres are
incorporated in concrete at the time of mixing
Ferrocement: Thin sections are formed by embedding
multiple layers of steel wire mesh in cement mortar

Structural Analysis And Design
Analysis: to determine the stress resultants and
displacements in the various members of a structure under
any loading
Design: to provide adequate member sizes, reinforcement
and connection details, to withstand safely the load
To perform analysis, the proportions of various structural
elements should be known in advance; for this, a preliminary
design is generally required
In practice, analysis and design are interactive processes

Grade of Concrete
Compressive Strength can be easily obtained and correlated
with other properties of concrete
The quality or grade of concrete is designated in terms of its
characteristic compressive strength (of 150 mm cubes at 28-
days), expressed in MPa
The number is usually preceded by the letter ‘M’, which
refers to ‘mix’.
Ex. M25 - characteristic strength of 25 Mpa
Characteristic strength: strength of material below which
not more than 5% of test results are expected to fall
Table 2, IS 456: 2000 gives standard grades used

Types of Loads
35
Dead Loads
Fixed in magnitude and position
Dead load of a structure: weight of structure together with
its associated ‘non-structural’ components
After the design process, the initially assumed dead load of
the structure has to be compared with the actual dead load
If difference is significant, revise the assumed dead load
Imposed Loads
Imposed loads (also referred to as live loads) are gravity loads
other than dead loads and include items such as occupancy by
people, movable equipment and furniture within the buildings,
stored materials such as books or machinery
36

Wind Loads
Code IS 875:1987 (Part 3) provides the basic wind speeds,
averaged over a short interval of 3 seconds and having a 50-
year return period at 10 m height above ground level in
different parts of the country
Wind Load Depends on: Velocity and density of air, Height
above ground level, Shape and aspect ratio of the building,
Topography of the surrounding ground surface, Angle of
wind attack, Solidity ratio or openings in the structure,
Susceptibility of the structural system under consideration
to steady and time-dependent (dynamic) effects induced by
the wind load

Design Concepts
Design Considerations
Safety
Partial or total collapse is acceptably low under normal
service loads and abnormal but probable overloads
(earthquake or wind)
Collapse occurs due to exceeding the load−bearing capacity,
overturning, sliding, buckling, fatigue fracture, etc.
Structural integrity should maintained
Minimise the likelihood of progressive collapse
44
Serviceability
Satisfactory performance under service loads, without
discomfort to the user due to excessive deflection, cracking,
vibration, etc.
Other considerations are durability, impermeability, acoustic
and thermal insulation, etc.
A design that satisfies safety requirement need not
necessarily satisfy serviceability requirement
Example: a thin reinforced concrete slab can be safe against
collapse but it is likely to result in excessive deflections,
crack-widths and permeability and the exposed steel
becomes vulnerable to corrosion
45
Design Philosophies
Working Stress Method (WSM)
Traditional method used in RCC, steel & timber structures
Structural material behaves in a linear elastic manner
Adequate safety is ensured by suitably restricting stresses in
the material induced by working loads
As permissible stresses are kept well below the material
strength, assumption of linear elastic behaviour is justified
Factor of Safety: ratio of material strength to permissible
stress
Strain Compatibility due to bond is assumed
46
Stresses in concrete and steel are assumed to be linearly
related to their respective strains
stress in steel is linearly related to that in the adjoining
concrete by modular ratio (Es/Ec)
Stresses under working loads kept within permissible
stresses are not realistic due to long-term effects of creep
and shrinkage, effects of stress concentrations, and other
secondary effects, resulting redistribution
WSM fails to discriminate between different types of loads
that act simultaneously, but have different degrees of
uncertainty leading to un-conservative designs
Structures designed usingWSM are performing satisfactorily
47
Limit State Method
Comprehensive and rational solution to the design problem,
by considering safety at ultimate loads and serviceability at
working loads
Uses a multiple safety factor format which attempts to
provide adequate safety at ultimate loads as well as adequate
serviceability at service loads, by considering all possible
‘limit states’
48
Limit states
State of impending failure, beyond which a structure ceases
to perform its intended function satisfactorily, in terms of
either safety or serviceability; i.e., it either collapses or
becomes unserviceable
Ultimate limit states (or ‘limit states of collapse’), which
deal with strength, overturning, sliding, buckling, fatigue
fracture, etc.
Serviceability limit states, which deal with discomfort
to occupancy and/or malfunction, caused by excessive
deflection, crack-width, vibration, leakage, etc., and also
loss of durability, etc.
